Omnivores

Omnivores
are a group of animals that are not specialised in their feeding preferences.
They will eat virtually anything they can find.

The
Eight-armed Seastar, Patriella calcar,
will eat algae, small molluscs and crustaceans, as well as the remains
of dead animals.

Other
animals are scavengers, and eat any debris they can find lying on the
shore. Crabs such as the Ghost Crabs, Ocypode cordimanna, of the
eastern and northern coasts, and the Burrowing Shore Crab, Leptograpsus
octodentatus, of southern shores, amphipods and isopods such as the
Marine Slater, Ligia australiensis,
Sea Gulls, Larus novaehollandiae, as well as visiting Australian
Ravens, Corvus corinoides, will eat the remains of dead animals such
as the carcasses of Muttonbirds, and fish, thrown onto the shore by the
waves.
